Richard and OGP company have no illusions about them being audio professionals.
And yes, it's more useful to look at RME, Echo, M-Audio, but keep it
cool, please ;)
Its ok. I was prepared for the responses. I think the candid
opinions have value, keep em comming. I'll point Tim at the RME,
Echo, and M-Audio to look at as examples.
Basically OGD1 is a big FPGA board with 256Mb of DDR RAM and some nice
clean high speed analog and digital ouputs. The question Tim is
asking (audio cluelessness aside) are:
how expensive is a firewire port ?
firewire stuff is THE niche to fill.
most newer firewire devices are not supported if if i understand
correctly.
ahh... and this magic "getting the audio clock from jack" stuff would be
really nice.
Can the audio community use such a board?
Will they help in producing the feature set and design?
What features would it need?
What would they pay for it?
